Well with the few GT3 and road race builds going on here, I figured I would start one as well.

Its one of the new release's from Fujimi, its the Merc SLS AMG GT3 race car, there are two verison of the kit, and the one I bought is a non livery version, I am pretty sure the paint will be silver of some sorts, this kit does come with a basic P/E set .

Very Interesting project. I wonder whether this kit bashes well with the Revell SLS?

I was thinking that myself, and I dont see why not, both are 1/24th scale, so it might work

Up first is the completed I think for the most part chassis, I am going to do the wheels in Alclad I think, or maybe something a little bit darker

And starting on the interior tube, what a pain to mask and paint, I did black first, then the aluminum, I think I should of done vise versa

And how about some color, Tamyia TS-17

And I need to attach the P/E screens to them before I can attach them to body
